#FF Time! Feature & Follow – Get Your Hop On.

Welcome to the Feature & Follow

The Feature & Follow is hosted by TWO hosts, Parajunkee of Parajunkee’s View and Alison of Alison Can Read. Each host will have their own Feature Blog and this way it’ll allow us to show off more new blogs!

How does this work?

The goal is to increase blog followers and make friends. First you leave your name here on this post, (using the linky tools — keep scrolling!) then you create a post on your own blog that links back to this post (easiest way is to just grab the code under the #FF picture and put it in your post) and then you visit as many blogs as you can and tell them “hi” in their comments (on the post that has the #FF image). You follow them, they follow you. Win. Win. Just make sure to follow back if someone follows you! What sets this Hop apart from others, is our Feature. Each week we will showcase a Featured Blogger, from all different genres and areas. Who is our Feature today? Find out below. Just remember it is required, if you participate, to follow our Features and you must follow the hosts (Parajunkee & Alison Can Read) as a courtesy. How do you follow someone? Well, if you have a preference, state it in your #FF post. A lot of blogs are transitioning to WordPress in which they do not have the luxury of GFC, so an RSS subscription is appreciated or if you choose an email subscription. If you don’t have GFC please state in your post how you would like to be followed. All features are chosen randomly to be the feature. They are not chosen by content or name.

I love that I can connect with readers who live a continent away from me.

What type of books do you mainly blog about?

I mostly blog about Young Adult novels (especially retellings), but sometimes I also blog about gothic classics.

What is your favorite book(s)?

My favorites (in no particular order) include Ender’s Game, The Picture of Dorian Gray, Eleanor and Park, The Hunger Games, Shadow and Bone, Interview with the Vampire, The Great Gatsby, and many more…

What has been the best thing that has happened to you because of book blogging?

This week, I won a First Reads giveaway on Goodreads, and I think that’s largely because of my blog.

This weeks Question:

Suggest a question! We need questions of the week for future FFs. Any ideas?

I have literally tapped my creativity on FF questions…so I need you guys to be AWESOME!!!!!

New Feature! Next week’s post:

What book/series do you think would make a better TV show than a movie?

Also if you are worried about your followers not knowing how to follow you — here are some great banners that you might use:

Right Click, Save to your hard drive, upload to your #FF post and link to the “subscribe” link of your choice. RULES To join the fun and make new book blogger friends, just follow these simple rules:

Put your Blog name & URL in the Linky thing. You can also grab the code if you would like to insert it into your posts.

Grab the button up there and place it in a post, this post is for people to find a place to say “hi” in your comments and that they are now following you.

If you are using WordPress or another CMS that doesn’t have GFC (Google Friends Connect) state in your posts how you would like to be followed

Follow Follow Follow as many as you can, as many as you want, or just follow a few. The whole point is to make new friends and find new blogs. Also, don’t just follow, comment and say hi. Another blogger might not know you are a new follower if you don’t say “HI”

If someone comments and says they are following you, be a dear and follow back. Spread the Love…and the followers

If you’re new to the follow Friday hop, comment and let me know, so I can stop by and check out your blog!
